This time, I will share my sport activity related to this question: Which sport do you choose? (from EF-13 Weekly Challenge).

I choose this sport as my routine every Wednesday Morning. We, me and my friends, need to go to the public swimming pool to do this sport. Everyone call it Swimming. Beside other kind of sports I love, swimming is my favorite.

I usually do swimming at 8 AM (or more) for 1 or 1 and a half hours. The closest public swimming pool here is in Bengawan Sport (I’ve ever mentioned it in my other post). Bengawan Sport is a sport station that serves customers to do some kind of sports, such as futsal, badminton, fitness, bowling, calisthenic, pub & karaoke, and of course swimming! To get in swimming pool area, it costs you Rp10.000 per person for normal day (Monday until Friday) or Rp13.000 on weekend. This place opened from 7 AM to 6 PM. After that, sometimes it is used by athletes for exercise until night.

There is some reasons why do I like swimming than others. According to me, swimming is the easiest sport to do. You just need swimming pool. Don’t worry if you haven’t master swimming yet. Swimming is easy, and always be. Ask your friend or your coach to teach swimming. Start from shallow area to make yourself wonted. Then, someday you could do it easily.

Beside that reason, I do swimming in order to recovery my thigh. (Oh, God. I have to tell you about this. I am sorry) I have an accident in August 2013. My left thigh bone got fracture, just like this picture.

It almost 2 years I carry those platinum metals inside my thigh. Actually, my doctor said that I must get surgery last January. Unfortunately, at that time, I was still in my business (read: college). According to the doctor, I will need at least 2 free months to take rest after taking off those things from my body. And it gonna be after my graduation. *Sigh*.

Currently, my prime effort to recover my leg better is doing wispy-leg-sport, like swimming. My doctor also suggest me to do running (small running). There is no badminton, futsal, or boxing (LOL) on my list, because the doctor didn’t recommend me to do that things. Poor am I.

Owh, so sorry to hear about the accident. I wish you will be recovered soon.
About the sport… okay, I’m not a fan of sports, so this writing left me in an awe, as I can’t do swimming at all yet everyone said that it is very easy :haha. For me, swimming is very hard… and when swim, I usually be stone-like :huhu.
Teach me how to swim… :hehe.

Innalillah, I’m so sorry, and hopefully you’ll recover as normally soon. I like swimming, too! and it’s also my favorite but I can’t do it regularly. Too bad. I love swimming because it doesn’t feel like sweating hihi

Sorry about your accident. I hope it will get better and better 🙂
I love swimming too. Because it will move all of your body in one sport, that is swimming. Too bad I don’t have a really good swimming pool around my house.

Hi Umami, this is my first time stopping by to your blog. Hope your bone get recover soon. My brother also swimming for his bone recovery. It’s a good therapy. I was ever being a civil engineering student at UNS but only for two months, hehe XD

I’m sorry for being late to know that you got an accident. Hope you’ll get better soon and can do your activities as usual. A friend of mine had the same condition too in her calf. She fell from the stage when she turned down from the ladder. spraining her haste to meet the students who were summoned. calf bone fracture and should be fitted with a pen for a year. But now her leg was totally fine.
